METHOD FOR LAUNCHING OF JET PROJECTILE AND COMPLEX OF FACILITIES REALIZING IT Russian patent published in 2001 - IPC

FIELD: jet artillery armament. SUBSTANCE: launching of jet projectile consists in ejection of projectile from the launching tube and subsequent starting of its rocket engine by thermogasodynamic action of the igniter combustion products on the inserted charge of solid fuel. Thermogasodynamic action of the igniter combustion products on the charge of solid fuel is effected after elimination of the gap between the charge of solid fuel and the combustion chamber of the rocket engine in the direction of the resultant force of thermogasodynamic action of the igniter on the charge of solid fuel. The complex facilities comprises the launching tube, rocket with the rocket engine with propellant installed in it, provided with an inserted charge of solid fuel, igniter, and the rocket engine start programmer. The rocket engine start programmer is functionally coupled with the extreme position of the inserted charge of solid fuel in the combustion chamber of the rocket engine in the direction of the resultant force of thermogasodynamic action of the igniter combustion products on the charge of solid fuel. EFFECT: enhanced combat efficiency of the complex. 4 cl, 3 dwg
